Missing Person

Missing Person - Split Enz

Written by：Neil Finn

Home to sweet home it just occured to me

To be on my own in search of bitter treats

I get so removed but you never notice it

Step in my shoes you'll see that I don't fit

I walk home the wrong way hoping I'll go astray

I'd like to be a missing person

Eyes open wide but all I see is black

You thought I was alright just wait til you get back

There'll be no one home

And they'll stay up all night

Everyone I know I'm wishing you goodnight

I walk home the wrong way hoping I'll go astray

I'd like to be a missing person

I wander the highways asleep in your doorways

I'm wanted but I'm a missing person

Missing person missing person

And I fly by night fighting to get away

On the neon lights I slip down alley ways

Only safe and sound when silence brings a chill

Now my back is turned I know I can't stand still

I walk home the wrong way this time I'll go astray

I like to be a missing person

I wander the highways asleep in your doorways

I'm wanted but I'm a missing person

Missing person missing person missing person
